We Got a Gold

[mustard-tree]

Well done Kelly Gallagher and her guide for winning the first paralympic winter gold for GB

And Jade Etherngton and guide won bronze.

Just goes to show what determination can do.

[captainbovine]

absolutely, it's brilliant isn't it?

[mustard-tree]

Guide or no guide, tearing downhll on skis when you cant see takes guts.

[bitsnknots]

Don't they put you to shame?  I admire anyone that can do that.  It's brilliant.

[ed_blackadder_1]

Certainly does, put me too shame, I can only just manage to walk up a hill without moaning.

[lhasa.two]

Brilliant!

I could not ski at that speed with full sight let alone almost blind, and well done to her guide as well.

[mustard-tree]

And her guide gets a medal too

Very much deserved.
